Lead in your chocolate

The FDA has stated that the "safe" amount of lead to consume is below 0.5 ppm (parts per million). Conversely, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has not found threshold for exposure in which there are no harmful effects.

Therefore, it is disturbing to hear that milk chocolate contains up to 0.222 ppm and dark chocolate up to 0.275ppm.

If anyone comes across a brand that advertises their chocolate does not contain lead... please share!!!! Not the chocolate... just your info.

It's not graffiti, it's art!!

This article is about a young girl who wrote on the sidewalk with chalk and was charged with a $300 violation. Reminds me of the 13 year old who was brought to court by record companies for downloading a few songs. This stupid country needs to go after the real criminals...the ones in the White House. Leave the art and music to the people!
